1. Minus superscripts for UNITS (so 's^-1' here—not 'e-3', which is
fine) are converted to hyphens with the 'text' unit alternative (with
the default 'mathematics' unit alternative everything is fine):

2. The times symbol between the number and the 10^-3 (e-3) is
incorrectly spaced (as an ordinary math atom instead of a binary math
atom) so doesn't look good.

Maybe Hans could change

\def\digitstimessymbol{\times}

to

\def\digitstimessymbol{\ifmmode\times\else${}\times{}$\fi}

in phys-dim.mkiv?


should be better in next beta ... (different solution)
